1. George T.
“We appreciate the excellent care George and his wife gave our baby girls, Roxie & Winnie! Winnie is very timid and takes a while to warm up to anyone but the first time we meet them she licked Chandra. We felt relief that our skiddish baby was comfortable with them. This was our first experience using Rover and boarding our girls, however I won’t hesitate to do it again. George was very responsive anytime I reached out and he consistently provided updates with pictures of our girls. I was apprehensive in the beginning, not with George or Chandra, but the whole process of boarding our girls for 2 weeks. However, after returning and seeing how the girls responded & how well they were taken care of by George & his wife I would highly recommend using them to take care of your furr-babies! :)”

“Bailey had an amazing time as usual. She zoomed into the house ready to play. Never have to worry when leaving her with Haley and her family.”
3. Teresa L.
“Teresa and her husband are absolute gems! My pup is almost 15 years old, so I get very nervous about leaving him people outside of my care. That wasn’t an issue with Teresa and her husband. They sent me pictures and videos often, confirmed that he was taking his medications and eating well, and communicated with me very clearly regarding questions I had. When I returned, my flight was delayed several times and they so graciously stayed up until midnight so that I could get my baby. I definitely plan to book with them again and recommend their sweet abode to anyone else looking for a sitter ❤️”
4. Mychelle P.
“If I could give a 1,000 stars I would ! For the past 6 months I have been looking for an alternative to boarding; I completely trust the boarding places with my dogs. Ideally, I wanted my dogs to stay at someone’s house who would give the same level of care as the boarding facilities we use. Never imagined I would find that special person. I needed someone that I connected with, to give me peace of mind, someone who I felt would love and care for my dogs like we do, so that I would not have to worry about them - in this case, we were in Europe for 2 weeks. When I first met Mychelle I knew she was the ONE! Her husband Joe is amazing as well! My dogs mean the world to me - finding the perfect person wasn’t easy. It was coming down to weeks before we were leaving. I still had my reservations at the boarding facilities because I could not find anyone who would exceed my expectations. It was a miracle that I found Mychelle, I had my list of the IDEAL sitter for my dogs. I wanted to have communication while I was gone, texts, and pictures. Without fail Mychelle sent me tons of photos and videos everyday. To me, she is like a professional dog photographer. While I was gone we chatted back and forth over texts, we even spoke a couple of times, she always put me at ease. It is sweltering hot in the summer in Dallas, and even still she took our dogs for walks very early in the morning and/or later in the evening. Our dogs walk at least once a day between 30 and 60 minutes, it is essential that my older dog not sit around all day. He lives for his walks! Our dogs felt completely at home, my senior dog loved to sleep on her dog’s bed. Imagine that, Mychelle and her fur babies gave up their own bed - who has yet to like any dog bed. Mychelle is a professional, she has a calm and reassuring voice, she is transparent, she knows dogs and their emotions. She was very in tune with our dogs… absolutely indebted to Mychelle and Joe. My dogs love her! We adore her, and cannot imagine anyone else caring for our dogs!”

10. Carla B.
“This was my first time using rover and leaving my puppy with someone. I was very nervous but Carla put me at ease. I was able to meet with Carla first to see if it was a good fit. She kept me updated with pictures and videos multiple times daily of Cash. I am glad he felt at home and had someone to care for him just as his own. ❤️ Carla treated him like family and I could be more appreciative.”

20. Marisela V.
“Marisela is the best dog boarding sitter that I have ever had. She sent me pictures of each day I was away showing me how my dog was including taking walks with my dog. My dog looked so happy and relaxed. That kept us so relaxed to enjoy our vacation and not worry about how our dog was doing. On my return, I could tell how my dog had really bobbed with her. I will definitely go back to her over and over again. Thank you Marisela, you are the best!!!”
